Floretta Grant

Floretta Grant serves as a Contracting Officer responsible for managing the acquisition lifecycle for critical facility and operational support services. In this role, she ensures compliance with federal procurement regulations while advancing mission-critical infrastructure and service delivery objectives. Her portfolio primarily encompasses commercial and institutional building construction projects as well as food service contracting, requiring deep familiarity with performance-based acquisition methods, contract administration, and risk mitigation strategies. She works closely with project managers, technical evaluators, and legal advisors to structure solicitations that promote competition, transparency, and value for the government. Grant’s contractor relationships are broad-based, engaging a diverse range of firms qualified under standard federal procurement criteria. She routinely works with general contractors specializing in institutional construction and food service providers delivering institutional dining solutions. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she fosters consistent partnerships with firms demonstrating proven performance, sound financial health, and adherence to quality and safety standards. Her approach emphasizes fair and open competition, with no preference for set-aside programs—100% of her awards are issued under full and open competition. Her set-aside preferences reflect a strong commitment to unrestricted competition, with all acquisitions conducted under the “No Set-Aside” classification. This approach underscores her focus on maximizing value through broad market participation rather than socioeconomic targeting. She adheres strictly to FAR Part 19 guidelines while ensuring all eligible vendors, regardless of size or certification, have equitable access to opportunities. Her primary NAICS focus is on 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), where she manages complex construction contracts involving design-build, renovation, and facility modernization. She also regularly procures services under 722310 (Food Service Contractors), requiring expertise in performance metrics, sanitation compliance, and service-level agreements. Her technical domain expertise lies in integrating construction timelines with operational continuity, particularly in high-traffic institutional environments.
